Meen Thengapal Curry - Fish Curry in Coconut milk

It is a mild, flavourful and delicious fish curry from the cuisine of middle Kerala .Coconut and coconut milk impart a great role in the Kerala cuisine.And in my recipe collection here, most of the curries are made with coconut milk especially seafood varieties. This lip smacking curry is a must try for all l seafood lovers and its a heavenly accompaniment and tastes wonderful with appam, idiyappam ,chapati , bread and rice too.....

Ingredients :

Fish(cleaned and cut into medium size pieces) : 500gm

Pearl Onions : 4-5

Ginger : a medium size piece(1 inch)

Garlic : 2-3pods

Onion(chopped) : 1 small

Green Chillies : 2

Curry Leaves : 2 springs

Red Chilly Powder : 2 tbsp

Turmeric Powder : 1/2 tsp

Fish Masala : 1 tsp(I use Eastern)

Thick Coconut Milk : 3/4 cup

Fenugreek Seeds : 1/2 tsp

Salt

Kudampuli : 2 small piece

Coconut Oil

Method :

Crush the pearl onions,ginger and green chillies together.

Heat oil in a claypot and splutter fenugreek seeds.

Saute the chopped onion,garlic pods and curry leaves together till the onions get soft.

Add the crushed mix and saute for 2-3 minutes.

Now add all the powders and saute for 2-3 minutes in medium flame.

When the raw smell goes,add 1/2 cup of water and let it boil.

While boiling, add salt,kudampuli and fish pieces.
